Hi Em!
I`m glad to discover your very interesting blog-site!
I`m new at Prospero`s Bookshop and have never
seen you yet there. I`ll be glad if you come, we`ll
have an interesting dialogue with cup of hot coffee 😉
Hi Nick! Nice to “meet” you…sorry it took me so long to notice your message 😉 I stop by Prospero’s on occasion, but not too often. I’ll make sure I say “Hello” if I see you there!
Hi! I was pleased to wonder across your blog this morning. I knew there was a Chinese restaurant here!! Have never been able to actually find it LOL. Hubby and I tried once by calling information and they sent us to a completely different restaurant, and he’s Georgian so communication wasn’t an issue. I am also an American ex-pat living in Tbilisi (may someday have an actual blog).
